The Green and White "BEGGAR On Horseback" is Commencement play COEDS Have full charge of this issue THE OFFICIAL SEMI-WEEKLY STUDENT PUBLICATION AT OHIO UNIVERSITY VOLUME XVIII OHIO UNIVERSITY, ATHENS, OHIO, FRIDAY, MAY 3,1929 No. 46 GREAT AMERICAN POET ADDRESSES LARGE AUDIENCE Edwin Markham Is Given Ovation by Enthusiastic Listeners READS POEMS "The Man with the Hoe" Climaxes Interesting Program By C. L. G. A picturesque, venerable man of 77 years walked out on the stage of j Ewing Hall Auditorium'last night and for two hours a S. R. O. audience listened to his inspiring and delightful talk and poems without once evincing a desire to leave. This man j was Edwin Markham, a typical poet in appearance—with flowing black ' tie, white beard, and unruly, long, white hair. In a confidential, in-; formal manner, he entertained his i his listeners with illuminating comments on the meaning of poetry and ; drolly humorous anecdotes. The reading of his best known poems was the highlight of the evening. Mr. Markham, who was introduced by Dean E. W. Chubb as a poet of great national and international in-; terest, first compared himself to the lover who begins his letter not knowing what he is going to say, and ends not knowing what he has said. Beginning with a consideration of the definition of poetry, the great American poet first explained that one needs not know what poetry is,, because it is that which rises out of the thinking heart of man—it is the most rapturous part of him which ( rises out of his and noble. "We are not supposed to have the! refined, delicate, lofty notions about life and nature that the artist does," Mr. Markham continued. "We might throw education aside and plunge with daring into our instuitions. The j artist adds something to nature from j his own soul—we are stirred by his, spirit—we are chastened, hushed, up- i lifted—for all art must elevate the soul, or it is not art. The most precious things in human life are those which lift and elevate us." The first "great definition of poetry was given by the Persian prophet Zoroaster, that the poet makes the unapparent, apparent—the unmani- ■ fest, manifest. That imagination is the great re-! quisite of a poet, was the second de-! finition given by Mr. Markham. Shakespeare defined poetry as emanating from emotions deeply aroused —that something which awakens the poet's whole being, as he looks from the earth to heaven. The poet sees life spiritually and materially, and turns his thoughts into words. Ac-! cording to Shakespeare, the poet, gives us something where he had seen nothing before—"he sees significance in an object which we merely glance ■t" "Through art, we may come into sympathy with life, and it is the end, of human evolution," the speaker dedared. "Life is infinite, and the possibilities for art are unlimited." Art and science are antitheses, according to Mr. Markham. They both belong to different realms. Poetry; deals with great emotions, intuitions, \ and spiritual things. Science deals with physical things, he explained. Truth is approached through gradual experiments by the scientist, he continued. "Truth comes in quick flashes of intuition to the artist. At this point, the speaker further endeared himself to the audience with the narration of a humorous storytold quaintly and drolly. The poet seemed to be telling the audience something immensely personal and intimate. Science stops where poetry begins —with the fact of natural phenomena of the universe, he declared in conclusion. "Poetry must also have truth as well as beauty. In every truth, there is a radiance, a light, which I call the smile upon the face of truth." Suddenly, whimsically, the great poet implored the audience to look interested whether it was or not"because that will encourage me, and a young fellow needs encouragement." This entreaty was entirely unecessary, however, for the crowded house listened intently to each phrase that fell from his lips. The first poem read by Mr. Markham, "Child of My Heart," was perhaps one of the finest of emotional readings presented to an Athens audience. A delicate, yet strong appeal, stung some persons in the audience to sympathetic tears. The beautiful love of the poet for his then four year old son was intertwined with a lyric mysticism which is only too foreign to the modern poetry of today. "Everything in the world is strange, and touches the infinite at some point," the speaker declared. "The universe is mysterious and comes out of a divine mystery, God." There is always something to be found out, and that weeps the mind eager and the heart quickened forever, Mr. Markham continued. "Three Green Eggs" was the next poem read by the poet. This was written at the request of his son Virgil, when he called his father's attention to a bird's nest swinging in the wind. The poem is written in the unsurpassable simplicity which Mr. Markham deems one of the greatest requisites of a poet. Other poems read by the poet were "Song's Eternity," "Beauty," "Your Whispered Secret," the humorous "The Caution," "Poverty," "The Truth at Last," "Outwitted," and "Lincoln," the poem which was used in the dedicatory exercises at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington. "A Look into the Gulf" was the reading of an impressive, colorful historical event, centering about the cruel Semiramis, who killed Ninos to gain the throne of Assyria. "His Home is on the Heights," "At I Prayer," and "Joy in the Morning," ; were read by Mr. Markham in fon- I elusion. At the request of Dean I Chubb, and in response to a tremen\ dous applause of the audience, Mr. Markham was recalled to give the | poem which gave him his great pop; ularity in the English speaking ! world, "The Man with the Uoe." In explanation of this poem, Lhe speaker told of his inspiration from the painting of Millet of the same title. It is the picture of a man who knows nothing of education, Mr. Markham declared. An animal is different from man because it has not emotions, no ideals. Ideals are the touch of the infinite in man. The man v.-ith the hoe has lost his ideals and thinks only of food and labor." This graat poem has been translated in 37 ianguages, 1 and has been reproduced in magazines newspapers 50,000 times. Appointment Bureau Places Two Students Two new placements have been made by the Ohio university Bureau of Appointments, Miss Lillian Barbour, secretary, has announced. Roberta Grimes, who will receive the degree of B. S. in Education in June has accepted a position as a commercial teacher in Ravenswood, W. Va. Glen Gillette, who received his A. B. degree here in 1925 and who has completed his work for a M. A. degree from Ohio State university has accepted a position as a teacher of Spanish and French in the Arnold School, at Pittsburgh, Pa. CHARM - BEAUTY PREDOMINATE IN SENIOR RECITAL Miss Brelsford, Pupil of Miss Joy Cutler, Presents Varied Program By M. V. H. Singing with effortless grace, Miss Ruth Brelsford, a pupil of Miss Joy Cutler, in her graduation recital at the Alumni Memorial auditorium, Wednesday night, completely charmed her audience with the loveliness of her clear soprano voice and personality. Her program was varied, but the greater number of the pieces were of the fragile, dainty type best suited to Miss Brelsford's lyric qualities. The easily flowing and airy passages, which were numerous especially in the French and Italian numbers, provided the singer with an excellent opportunity to use her voice to the best advantage in the clear top notes. Unusual power and beauty were found in the quality and volume of Miss Brelsford's voice in the mere powerful and dramatic songs, also. For all of the pieces Miss Mildred Maston provided a most sympathetic accompaniment.A German song by Schubert, Gretchen Am Spinnrade, was sung with fervor by Miss Brelsford, proving to be especially well liked by her audience. A folk song by the same composer, Heiden Roslein; two Italian numbers, Donaudy's delicate Freschi Luoghi, Prati Aulienti, and the serious Lasciatemi Morire by Monteverde; and Mozart's flowing Alleluja completed this group. Haydn's delicate and rhythmic With Verdure Clad, sung with lovely lyricism, opened Miss Brelsford's program. The aria from Massenet's Herodiade, II Est Doux, II Est Bon, sung by Salome in the courtyard of Herod's palace, in praise of John the Baptist, was executed with beauty and dignity. A graceful composition by Rachmaninoff, The Island, began the singer's third group of songs. Following it were tender Come Child, Beside Me of Bleichman, and Chausson's fragile Les Papillons, describing the motions of butterflies. The sweetly serious Silencieuse by Staub, and, in contrast, Fourdain's recklessly gay Carnival brought the group to a close. A light, high, and clear tone poem, Orpheus with His Lute, by Busch, was the first number in Miss Brelsford's last group. As fragile as the peach flower, after which it was named, was the second song, with a musical setting by Bantock for an ancient Chinese tevt. Time, You Old Gypsy Man, by Besly, was sung in an appropriately roguish and rollicking manner. Beauty and grace, suggestive of the subject of the piece, were manifested in Fiske's The Bird, and the concluding song, A Burst of Melody, by Seiler, was spontaneous and rippling. At the conclusion of this charming and colorful program, Miss Brelsford and her accompanist were presented with a great many flowers. Dean McCracken To Go To Atlanta, Ga. Dean T. C. McCracken will leave Friday night for Atlanta, Ga., where he will go to install the 58th chapter of Kappa Delta Pi, national honorary educationa lfraternity, or which he is national president. o. u Dean W. L. Sanders of Ohio Wesleyan says that as far as the rules of the university are concerned the coeds may "bum" rides the same as the men students. "Females" Issue Green and White A product of women, by women, for everyone. That is the present issue of the Green and White, stupendous undertaking of Sigma Rho, women's journalistic sorority. It's an entirely a female undertaking, 100 percent pure. And its features aiy, incidentally, 100 percent— Newswriting, headwriting, copyreading, and proofreading of front page material is entirely the work of coed students. The editorial columns have been shared by two coeds while Bottom's Up, famous column of "What Have You?" is the product of Deloris Cherry Current Comment has been written by Betty Breese while The Last Word is the co-product of Pauline Swanson and Mary Virginia Hewitt. And the sport page! It belongs entirely to Sports Editor Pat Sullivan and her co-workers. Pat not only wrote the advances, but sat right on the players bench at the Wittenberg game Wednesday and saw the contest "as was." They agree that it's a grtat life, but admit that the hours are just a bit irregular. Roos Will Speak Of Big Buildings "Skyscrapers" Is Subject of Talk Here Monday Night Skyscrapers—the kind that hide the sky in Chicago and New York Citywill be discussed in an illustrated lecture to be given by Prof. Frank J. Roos of the. Art department in Fine Arts hall Monday evening at 8:30 o'clock. Not only students interested in art but all students, faculty members, and Athens residents are cordially invited to hear the story of skyscrapers. Opinions concerning the place skyscrapers fill in the world of art today —whether they are true art or only commercial buildings—will be expressed also. Slides used will show samples of buildings from all over the United States including Ohio cities. Skyscrapers—being America's contribution to art Prof. Roos is particularly able to discuss this subject for he has specialized in the study of modern art. How skyscrapers" have been introduced into art as the first original contribution in orchitecture since the Italian Renaissance will be touched upon in the talk. This is the art instructor's first year at Ohio university. He came here in September from Harvard where he held a Carnegie Fellowship in Fine Arts. Prof. Roos graduated from the University of Chicago and pursued graduate work at both the University of Chicago and Harvard university. Collecting slides of modern art is a hobby as well as a vocation of Prof. Roos so that his lecture will be accompanied by a large number of fine and unusual slides. Rotary Club Buys Prize Loving Cup New Trophy Is Purchased for Winner of Fourth Annual Sorority Sing A new silver loving cup has been purchased by the Athens Rotary Club for presentation to the sorority winning the fourth annual song contest to be held on the campus, next Wednesday, Dean T. C. McCracken has announced. The original loving cup was won permanently last year when Pi Beta Phi was winner for the third consecutive year. Eight sororities have registered for participation in the contest this year, and have been holding daily rehearsals.ETSINGER NAMED NEXT EDITOR OF GREEN AND WHITE Appointment Based on Previous Experience, Recommendation and Exam Charles W. Etsinger, Bucyrus, a junior in Ohio university and a journalism major, has been appointed to the editorship of the Green and White for the year 1929-30, according to word received from the Campus Affairs committee, student-faculty group which made the appointment last Wednesday. Previous to his advent to Ohio university, Etsinger gained considerable newspaper experience as a reporter on the Bucyrus Telegraph-Forum, his home town newspaper. During his university career he has worked in the circulation department of the Athens Messenger, has done student report- ing and copy reading for that paper, and has spent the summer months working as regular reporter and advertising solicitor for the Telegraph- Forum. Etsinger has studied varied branches of theory courses in the university and has also worked as student assistant on the Ohio university news bureau, directed by Prof. George Starr Lasher. He has served as a member of tht Green and White staff for three years and was appointed to the position of news editor at the conclusion of the first semester this year. He is a member of the English club, Delta Gamma Mu, local journalistic fraternity, the symphony orchestra, and was a member of the French club. His scholastic record has been high. Etsinger's appointment was made on the basis of previous experience on the Green and White staff, the present editor's recommendation, and the grade made on the competitive examination given several weeks ago. Etsinger will assume his duties as editor with the issue beginning Friday, May 17, Bob Marriott, present editor, stated today, in order that he may become fully acquainted with the mechanical duties connected with the Green and White. Other business of the Campus Affairs committee Wednesday included a hearing on recommendations for other appointive offices to campus publications, but no other appointments were made at that time. Business of the committee will be concentrated upon remaining appointments until all are completed, however, Dean Irma E. Voigt, chairman of the group, said. o. u. Delaware, Ohio.—"Ep," German police mascot of the Sigma Phi Epsilon chapter at Ohio Wesleyan, has presented the brothers of the lodge with nine new greeks. It seems that the original number of canine newcomers was ten, but one died, so there remain only nine monikers to select. "No News Yet, But It Won't Be Long Now," Say Reporters Wherein is depicted how an election extra of the Green and White finally came to be placed on the streets late Tuesday night. Scene, Lawhead Press, anytime between 10 and 12:30 o'clock. Characters, anyone of the Green and White and the Press staff. Phone rings. Business of answering it. "Hello, yes.! I don't know. Whazzat! Sure this is the printing office. Any news? No, we don't have a bit. It won't be long now though. Paper out to be out with full details in half-hour." Interim of half-hour, filled with phone calls, all of which are answered in the same manner—that there is no news and that the paper will be out in a half-hour. # Minutes pass, as they have a habit of doing. Impressions'. • Ringing phones. Babble of noises outside. Students clamoring for .news. No news. At least, not yet. Roy Shirley and Pete Good of the Press, walking up and down, good naturedly inquiring how long they are going to have to stay there before the paper is out. Several others in same frame of nind. All consider it a good joke, this business of how soon the paper comes out. Phone ringing incessantly"No,"No, we haven't been able to get a thing yet. Sorry. Yeh. It'll be ten minutes sure. A big extra goes on the street then. Sure. I'm sure it'll be ten minutes. It can't be long anymore."Twenty, thirty, forty minutes—an hour passes. The crowd outside the windows becomes more clamorous. Staff members have instructions that no ngws is to leak out. Students at the windows, trying to see what is being written. No one allowed to leave the building. It is 12:30 o'clock. Phone buzzes. Usual method of answering. Sudden quick action. Everybody involved. Final results. Toupees make almost clean sweep of offices. Much excitement inwardly, but staff members are not to betray facial emotions so those outside can know anymore than they do. Several minutes more. Type is set. Front page is made up and placed in press. Whirr, and the big election extra is out. Crowd mills around the building and grabs papers as they are given out as if they were something good to eat, instead of something good to read. Stump Recalls Good Old Days Does an yone want a piece of a stump to remind him of the good old days? This is not a joke. The offer has been made by Clark Williams of the Alumni office. An old elm tree, thought to be over 125 years old, has been cut down in front of East Wing. The tree was planted when the first building on the Ohio campus was still intact. Pieces from the tree have been given to the alumni of the university upon their request, and one limb of the tree is being retained by the Alumni office. The last of the old landmark, a stump, is to be removed from the campus this week. Any persons wishing a piece of the stump will be able to obtain it at the Alumni office, it is announced. OHIO TENNIS MEN TO FACE STRONG DENISON SQUAD New Material Forms Formidable Outfit for Birdmen Today Because of inclement weather conditions the tennis match which was to have been played between Ohio and Denison here today has been indefinitely postponed, it was stated at noon today. Facing prospects of favorable weather, and backed by a week of extensive practice sessions, the Ohio university tennis squad will inaugurate the present season this afternoon in meeting the Denison netters on the Ohio courts. Advance information on the Baptist outfit is a negligible quantity at present. It is known that the squad is composed largely of new material and reports indicate that the youngsters form the most formidable combination on the present team. Veterans are also listed in the Granville ranks and, all in all, the Ohioans expect a busy afternoon. In addition to the fact that the Ohioans scored a double win over the Baptists last year and, consequently, hope to keep the slate clean today, the Birdmen must think of the leputation acquired last year as Buckeye champions. The squad this year is composed of only one of last year's chnn;ps, I utz, captain and No. 1 man on the Ohio captain and No. 1 man on the Ohio squad. He is a steady back-court man, possesses a puzzling serve, and is outstanding in Buckeye net circles. Burkholder, although not a member of the squad last year, was a regular during his sophomore year and seems to have lost none of his old ability during the lay-off. He is entering his last year of varsity competition and will probably pair with Lutz in the doubles event. The remaining positions, No. 3 and No. 4, will be filled by Gardner and Marriott respectively, Coach Bird stated today. Gardner, a sophomore, won the right to varsity competition by defeating all comers in the elimination series while Marriott played and won his final elimination match Wednesday and will hold down the fourth position. These two men will also pair in the doubles, according to early reports. The match today will consist of four singles matches and two doubles matches. No admission will be charged and all net enthusiasts are invited to attend the opening match. o. u. Independents Pick Board Candidates Five Men From Each Class to Comprise Executive Board At a meeting of the Executive Board of the Independent league last night nominations were made for members of next year's Executive Board.

Cole; Michael Krudir; Claude McMillion; Robert Young; Ovid McMillion; Charles Etsinger.If members of the league desire a change in the candidates for election they must submit the desired change by a petition signed by twenty-five names. The petition must be handed in to the secretary, Robert Young, no later than May 10. The qualifications for members of the Executive board are full membership in the Independent league and at least a C average. — o. u. POET VISITS CLASS Edwin Markham, internationally known poet who addressed the students of Ohio university in Ewing hall last evening, spoke to the memhers of Dean E. W. Chubb's Shakespeare class this morning at 9:30. He left Athens at noon for Toledo, where he will spend the week-end with friends and lecture on Sunday. "Beggar on Horseback" to Be Commencement Production of Playshop; Is Two Act Satire To Be Given Late in May and Repeated June 10; Martinek in Featured Role of Composer KIEFER AND JUKES TO DO STAGING Jones, Battin, Swanson, Scott, Dowd, Smith in Cast; Lekburg Writes Music for Pantomime "Beggar on Horseback," an expressionistic satire by Kaufman and Connely, has been chosen by Director Harold Evans to conclude the Playshop program for the year, it has been announced. It will be given first late in May, and repeated at commencement.The play has been released to amateurs after a very successful life on the professional stage. It was first produced by Winthrop Ames at the Broadhurst theatre in New York, February 12, 1924, with Roland Young the featured actor. The major part of the play is a dream in which the principal characters rush through nine scenes at a mad jazz tempo. In this dream all the subtleties of satire are focused upon the clamorous, "noveau-riche" family, the Cadys from Livingston. Neil Mcßae, the bewildered composer, who in his nightmare sees himself married to Gladys, the youngest of the Cadys; and Cynthia, his staunchest ally, are incongruous pictures amidst the gilt and plush of the Cady mansion.Bill Martinek, successful as Tom Prior in "Outward Bound," and as Chico in "Seventh Heaven," will again be seen in a brilliant role, that of the composer, Neil Mcßae. Opposite him, in the romantic lead, Pauline Jones will play Cynthia Mason. This will I be Miss Jones' first role in a major Playshop production. Marcia Scott as Mrs. Cady, Don Dowd as Mr. Cady, Tom Battin as Homer, and Pauline Swanson as Gladys make the group of noisy Cadys. Budd Smith, who figured in major roles in "The Queen's Husband" and "Seventh Heaven," will have the part of Dr. Albert Rice, a friend of Neil's. At the managerial helm Paul Kiefer and Vincent Jukes, both veterans in Playshop production work, will oversee all staging and lighting of the play. Nine scene shifts, all of which must take place in a moment's blackout, are necessary for the progress of the dream. A large cast of players seen in the dream scenes will include: a butler, Robert Powell; Jerry, Claire Sears; a business man, Lewis Gettings; Miss Hey, Dorothy Farnell; Miss You, Florence Coates; a waiter, William Phillips; a reporter, Sam MacEldowney; a juror, Harry Kelly; a guide, Leavitt Guard; a sightseer, Robert Oakes; a novelist, Pat O'Malley; a song writer, William Wolfe; an artist, Howard Blaine; a poet, Clifford Mortality, Hamilton McFadden. Act Two will include a pantomime in dance, "A Kiss in Xanadu," for which S. Victor Lekburg is writing the music. Music for the original production was composed by Deems Taylor, composer of the score for the Millay opera, "The King's Henchman." Greta Nissen was the featured dancer. Chosen for the pantomime are Mary Goelz, as the Princess of Xanadu; Rogers Eikenberry, as the Prince of Xanadu; Hazel Hershman, first lady in waiting; Jerry Trainor, first lord of the bedchamber; Howard Blaine, a lamp-lighter; and William O'Hara, a policeman. Rehearsals for "Beggar on Horseback" began early this week, and members of the Theatre Arts class have already begun construction of the necessary sets.

Female Editors Receive Early Morning Visitors It was 1:00 a. m. and the editress and sport editress of the present issue of the Green and White were laboriously piling page after page of news into the basket. The only noises to disturb the stillness of the room were the clicking of a typewriter, the scratching of a pen, and the rumble of the thunder that accompanied the all too frequent bright flashes of lightning. Occasionally a moth would alight on the back of the editress' neck, and the latter would break forth into a series of prolonged screams. Suddenly the outer door was heard to open and shut. The two female journalists glanced up simultaneously. Lo and behold! There in the doorway stood a man, his green slicker dripping" with rain, and a dark slouch hat pulled down over his eyes. Worst of all, he was grinning—a dirty grin. "Oh, Gawd!" the sport editress thought aloud. The editress-in-chief merely turned pale. "Wh—wh—what do you want?" the sport edtiress queried, not only with a shaking voice, but with her whole anatomy shaking. Well, it is a long story, but it finally turned out that the early morning visitor was one of the "athletes" who lives above the newspaper office. He proved to be of great assistance, giving the sp. e. some valuable pointers on the Wednesday's game. MISS CUTLER DIRECTS MUSIC FOR SERVICES Musical settings for various of the Psalms of David will comprise a program of special music which will take the place of the regular church services at the Christian church Sunday night. Music is under the direction of Miss Juy Cutler, on the School of Music faculty. Helen Hook, a senior in the School of Music, will be one of the soloists. KATIE KOED 7 merely suggested to the boy friend that I was suffering from eye strain and he saw tin; light immediately.

This entreaty was entirely unecessary, however, for the crowded house listened intently to each phrase that fell from his lips. The first poem read by Mr. Markham, "Child of My Heart," was perhaps one of the finest of emotional readings presented to an Athens audience. A delicate, yet strong appeal, stung some persons in the audience to sympathetic tears. The beautiful love of the poet for his then four year old son was intertwined with a lyric mysticism which is only too foreign to the modern poetry of today. "Everything in the world is strange, and touches the infinite at some point," the speaker declared. "The universe is mysterious and comes out of a divine mystery, God." There is always something to be found out, and that weeps the mind eager and the heart quickened forever, Mr. Markham continued. "Three Green Eggs" was the next poem read by the poet. This was written at the request of his son Virgil, when he called his father's attention to a bird's nest swinging in the wind. The poem is written in the unsurpassable simplicity which Mr. Markham deems one of the greatest requisites of a poet. Other poems read by the poet were "Song's Eternity," "Beauty," "Your Whispered Secret," the humorous "The Caution," "Poverty," "The Truth at Last," "Outwitted," and "Lincoln," the poem which was used in the dedicatory exercises at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington. "A Look into the Gulf" was the reading of an impressive, colorful historical event, centering about the cruel Semiramis, who killed Ninos to gain the throne of Assyria. "His Home is on the Heights," "At I Prayer," and "Joy in the Morning," ; were read by Mr. Markham in fon- I elusion. At the request of Dean I Chubb, and in response to a tremen\ dous applause of the audience, Mr. Markham was recalled to give the | poem which gave him his great pop; ularity in the English speaking ! world, "The Man with the Uoe." In explanation of this poem, Lhe speaker told of his inspiration from the painting of Millet of the same title. It is the picture of a man who knows nothing of education, Mr. Markham declared. An animal is different from man because it has not emotions, no ideals. Ideals are the touch of the infinite in man. The man v.-ith the hoe has lost his ideals and thinks only of food and labor." This graat poem has been translated in 37 ianguages, 1 and has been reproduced in magazines newspapers 50,000 times.

CHARM - BEAUTY PREDOMINATE IN SENIOR RECITAL Miss Brelsford, Pupil of Miss Joy Cutler, Presents Varied Program By M. V. H. Singing with effortless grace, Miss Ruth Brelsford, a pupil of Miss Joy Cutler, in her graduation recital at the Alumni Memorial auditorium, Wednesday night, completely charmed her audience with the loveliness of her clear soprano voice and personality. Her program was varied, but the greater number of the pieces were of the fragile, dainty type best suited to Miss Brelsford's lyric qualities. The easily flowing and airy passages, which were numerous especially in the French and Italian numbers, provided the singer with an excellent opportunity to use her voice to the best advantage in the clear top notes. Unusual power and beauty were found in the quality and volume of Miss Brelsford's voice in the mere powerful and dramatic songs, also. For all of the pieces Miss Mildred Maston provided a most sympathetic accompaniment.A German song by Schubert, Gretchen Am Spinnrade, was sung with fervor by Miss Brelsford, proving to be especially well liked by her audience. A folk song by the same composer, Heiden Roslein; two Italian numbers, Donaudy's delicate Freschi Luoghi, Prati Aulienti, and the serious Lasciatemi Morire by Monteverde; and Mozart's flowing Alleluja completed this group. Haydn's delicate and rhythmic With Verdure Clad, sung with lovely lyricism, opened Miss Brelsford's program. The aria from Massenet's Herodiade, II Est Doux, II Est Bon, sung by Salome in the courtyard of Herod's palace, in praise of John the Baptist, was executed with beauty and dignity. A graceful composition by Rachmaninoff, The Island, began the singer's third group of songs. Following it were tender Come Child, Beside Me of Bleichman, and Chausson's fragile Les Papillons, describing the motions of butterflies. The sweetly serious Silencieuse by Staub, and, in contrast, Fourdain's recklessly gay Carnival brought the group to a close. A light, high, and clear tone poem, Orpheus with His Lute, by Busch, was the first number in Miss Brelsford's last group. As fragile as the peach flower, after which it was named, was the second song, with a musical setting by Bantock for an ancient Chinese tevt. Time, You Old Gypsy Man, by Besly, was sung in an appropriately roguish and rollicking manner. Beauty and grace, suggestive of the subject of the piece, were manifested in Fiske's The Bird, and the concluding song, A Burst of Melody, by Seiler, was spontaneous and rippling. At the conclusion of this charming and colorful program, Miss Brelsford and her accompanist were presented with a great many flowers. Dean McCracken To Go To Atlanta, Ga. Dean T. C. McCracken will leave Friday night for Atlanta, Ga., where he will go to install the 58th chapter of Kappa Delta Pi, national honorary educationa lfraternity, or which he is national president. o. u Dean W. L. Sanders of Ohio Wesleyan says that as far as the rules of the university are concerned the coeds may "bum" rides the same as the men students. "Females" Issue Green and White A product of women, by women, for everyone. That is the present issue of the Green and White, stupendous undertaking of Sigma Rho, women's journalistic sorority. It's an entirely a female undertaking, 100 percent pure. And its features aiy, incidentally, 100 percent— Newswriting, headwriting, copyreading, and proofreading of front page material is entirely the work of coed students. The editorial columns have been shared by two coeds while Bottom's Up, famous column of "What Have You?" is the product of Deloris Cherry Current Comment has been written by Betty Breese while The Last Word is the co-product of Pauline Swanson and Mary Virginia Hewitt. And the sport page! It belongs entirely to Sports Editor Pat Sullivan and her co-workers. Pat not only wrote the advances, but sat right on the players bench at the Wittenberg game Wednesday and saw the contest "as was." They agree that it's a grtat life, but admit that the hours are just a bit irregular.

Delaware, Ohio.—"Ep," German police mascot of the Sigma Phi Epsilon chapter at Ohio Wesleyan, has presented the brothers of the lodge with nine new greeks. It seems that the original number of canine newcomers was ten, but one died, so there remain only nine monikers to select.

Scene, Lawhead Press, anytime between 10 and 12:30 o'clock. Characters, anyone of the Green and White and the Press staff. Phone rings. Business of answering it. "Hello, yes.! I don't know. Whazzat! Sure this is the printing office. Any news? No, we don't have a bit. It won't be long now though. Paper out to be out with full details in half-hour." Interim of half-hour, filled with phone calls, all of which are answered in the same manner—that there is no news and that the paper will be out in a half-hour. # Minutes pass, as they have a habit of doing. Impressions'. • Ringing phones. Babble of noises outside. Students clamoring for .news. No news. At least, not yet. Roy Shirley and Pete Good of the Press, walking up and down, good naturedly inquiring how long they are going to have to stay there before the paper is out. Several others in same frame of nind. All consider it a good joke, this business of how soon the paper comes out. Phone ringing incessantly"No,"No, we haven't been able to get a thing yet. Sorry. Yeh. It'll be ten minutes sure. A big extra goes on the street then. Sure. I'm sure it'll be ten minutes. It can't be long anymore."Twenty, thirty, forty minutes—an hour passes. The crowd outside the windows becomes more clamorous. Staff members have instructions that no ngws is to leak out. Students at the windows, trying to see what is being written. No one allowed to leave the building. It is 12:30 o'clock. Phone buzzes.

Stump Recalls Good Old Days Does an yone want a piece of a stump to remind him of the good old days? This is not a joke. The offer has been made by Clark Williams of the Alumni office. An old elm tree, thought to be over 125 years old, has been cut down in front of East Wing. The tree was planted when the first building on the Ohio campus was still intact. Pieces from the tree have been given to the alumni of the university upon their request, and one limb of the tree is being retained by the Alumni office. The last of the old landmark, a stump, is to be removed from the campus this week. Any persons wishing a piece of the stump will be able to obtain it at the Alumni office, it is announced. OHIO TENNIS MEN TO FACE STRONG DENISON SQUAD New Material Forms Formidable Outfit for Birdmen Today Because of inclement weather conditions the tennis match which was to have been played between Ohio and Denison here today has been indefinitely postponed, it was stated at noon today. Facing prospects of favorable weather, and backed by a week of extensive practice sessions, the Ohio university tennis squad will inaugurate the present season this afternoon in meeting the Denison netters on the Ohio courts. Advance information on the Baptist outfit is a negligible quantity at present. It is known that the squad is composed largely of new material and reports indicate that the youngsters form the most formidable combination on the present team. Veterans are also listed in the Granville ranks and, all in all, the Ohioans expect a busy afternoon. In addition to the fact that the Ohioans scored a double win over the Baptists last year and, consequently, hope to keep the slate clean today, the Birdmen must think of the leputation acquired last year as Buckeye champions. The squad this year is composed of only one of last year's chnn;ps, I utz, captain and No. 1 man on the Ohio captain and No. 1 man on the Ohio squad. He is a steady back-court man, possesses a puzzling serve, and is outstanding in Buckeye net circles. Burkholder, although not a member of the squad last year, was a regular during his sophomore year and seems to have lost none of his old ability during the lay-off. He is entering his last year of varsity competition and will probably pair with Lutz in the doubles event. The remaining positions, No. 3 and No. 4, will be filled by Gardner and Marriott respectively, Coach Bird stated today. Gardner, a sophomore, won the right to varsity competition by defeating all comers in the elimination series while Marriott played and won his final elimination match Wednesday and will hold down the fourth position. These two men will also pair in the doubles, according to early reports. The match today will consist of four singles matches and two doubles matches. No admission will be charged and all net enthusiasts are invited to attend the opening match. o. u.

"Beggar on Horseback" to Be Commencement Production of Playshop; Is Two Act Satire To Be Given Late in May and Repeated June 10; Martinek in Featured Role of Composer KIEFER AND JUKES TO DO STAGING Jones, Battin, Swanson, Scott, Dowd, Smith in Cast; Lekburg Writes Music for Pantomime "Beggar on Horseback," an expressionistic satire by Kaufman and Connely, has been chosen by Director Harold Evans to conclude the Playshop program for the year, it has been announced. It will be given first late in May, and repeated at commencement.The play has been released to amateurs after a very successful life on the professional stage. It was first produced by Winthrop Ames at the Broadhurst theatre in New York, February 12, 1924, with Roland Young the featured actor. The major part of the play is a dream in which the principal characters rush through nine scenes at a mad jazz tempo. In this dream all the subtleties of satire are focused upon the clamorous, "noveau-riche" family, the Cadys from Livingston. Neil Mcßae, the bewildered composer, who in his nightmare sees himself married to Gladys, the youngest of the Cadys; and Cynthia, his staunchest ally, are incongruous pictures amidst the gilt and plush of the Cady mansion.Bill Martinek, successful as Tom Prior in "Outward Bound," and as Chico in "Seventh Heaven," will again be seen in a brilliant role, that of the composer, Neil Mcßae. Opposite him, in the romantic lead, Pauline Jones will play Cynthia Mason. This will I be Miss Jones' first role in a major Playshop production. Marcia Scott as Mrs. Cady, Don Dowd as Mr. Cady, Tom Battin as Homer, and Pauline Swanson as Gladys make the group of noisy Cadys. Budd Smith, who figured in major roles in "The Queen's Husband" and "Seventh Heaven," will have the part of Dr. Albert Rice, a friend of Neil's. At the managerial helm Paul Kiefer and Vincent Jukes, both veterans in Playshop production work, will oversee all staging and lighting of the play. Nine scene shifts, all of which must take place in a moment's blackout, are necessary for the progress of the dream. A large cast of players seen in the dream scenes will include: a butler, Robert Powell; Jerry, Claire Sears; a business man, Lewis Gettings; Miss Hey, Dorothy Farnell; Miss You, Florence Coates; a waiter, William Phillips; a reporter, Sam MacEldowney; a juror, Harry Kelly; a guide, Leavitt Guard; a sightseer, Robert Oakes; a novelist, Pat O'Malley; a song writer, William Wolfe; an artist, Howard Blaine; a poet, Clifford Mortality, Hamilton McFadden. Act Two will include a pantomime in dance, "A Kiss in Xanadu," for which S. Victor Lekburg is writing the music. Music for the original production was composed by Deems Taylor, composer of the score for the Millay opera, "The King's Henchman." Greta Nissen was the featured dancer. Chosen for the pantomime are Mary Goelz, as the Princess of Xanadu; Rogers Eikenberry, as the Prince of Xanadu; Hazel Hershman, first lady in waiting; Jerry Trainor, first lord of the bedchamber; Howard Blaine, a lamp-lighter; and William O'Hara, a policeman. Rehearsals for "Beggar on Horseback" began early this week, and members of the Theatre Arts class have already begun construction of the necessary sets.

Female Editors Receive Early Morning Visitors It was 1:00 a. m. and the editress and sport editress of the present issue of the Green and White were laboriously piling page after page of news into the basket. The only noises to disturb the stillness of the room were the clicking of a typewriter, the scratching of a pen, and the rumble of the thunder that accompanied the all too frequent bright flashes of lightning. Occasionally a moth would alight on the back of the editress' neck, and the latter would break forth into a series of prolonged screams. Suddenly the outer door was heard to open and shut. The two female journalists glanced up simultaneously. Lo and behold! There in the doorway stood a man, his green slicker dripping" with rain, and a dark slouch hat pulled down over his eyes. Worst of all, he was grinning—a dirty grin. "Oh, Gawd!" the sport editress thought aloud. The editress-in-chief merely turned pale. "Wh—wh—what do you want?" the sport edtiress queried, not only with a shaking voice, but with her whole anatomy shaking. Well, it is a long story, but it finally turned out that the early morning visitor was one of the "athletes" who lives above the newspaper office. He proved to be of great assistance, giving the sp. e. some valuable pointers on the Wednesday's game. MISS CUTLER DIRECTS MUSIC FOR SERVICES Musical settings for various of the Psalms of David will comprise a program of special music which will take the place of the regular church services at the Christian church Sunday night. Music is under the direction of Miss Juy Cutler, on the School of Music faculty. Helen Hook, a senior in the School of Music, will be one of the soloists. KATIE KOED 7 merely suggested to the boy friend that I was suffering from eye strain and he saw tin; light immediately.
